Hi Eoin,

Have you looked at one of the online filesharing services?

We're using Box, which uses SSL/TLS to encrypted at the transport level.
But most of the other popular services (Dropbox, Google Drive, skydrive)
use SSL/TLS to encrypt in transit.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Harry

Hello Everyone,

 

I'm trying to find some best practices for securely distributing exam papers
between Faculty and the Exams office. While the academics' laptops are
encrypted, it's the unsecure circulation that creates a risk and I was
wondering what approaches were being taken elsewhere.

 

Many thanks for all your help,

 

Eoin.
